There'd been several 89 00:04:20.750 --> 00:04:22.370 near accidents, and the men were pretty jittery. 90 00:04:22.389 --> 00:04:22.970 Hmm. 91 00:04:23.889 --> 00:04:24.889 Well, you don't suppose that. 92 00:04:26.310 --> 00:04:28.589 Oh, Lamont, I know that look in your eye, that 93 00:04:28.670 --> 00:04:30.149 old crime detector look. 94 00:04:30.689 --> 00:04:32.839 You think that someone had something to do with that accident. 95 00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:35.319 I don't know anything about that, Margo. The reason I'm 96 00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:38.759 upset is that Pete Stockton is an old friend of mine. 97 00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:40.860 I know just how he must feel to have eight 98 00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:42.379 of his men killed working on his tunnel. 99 00:04:42.790 --> 00:04:43.529 Pete Stockton? 100 00:04:43.689 --> 00:04:47.100 Yes, the contractor.

I believe it was concerned with the 204 00:08:53.029 --> 00:08:55.269 murders in the new intercity tunnel. Murders? 205 00:08:56.029 --> 00:08:58.070 Those men were supposed to die by accident. 206 00:08:58.210 --> 00:09:00.960 Did you have anything to do with that accident, Mr. Brantley? 207 00:09:01.460 --> 00:09:02.360 What are you talking about? 208 00:09:02.460 --> 00:09:03.820 I'm asking you, did you have anything to do with 209 00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:05.539 those murders? No, nothing. 210 00:09:05.820 --> 00:09:07.700 Then who were you speaking to on the telephone? 211 00:09:08.460 --> 00:09:10.840 Why should I tell you? You'd better talk, Mr. 212 00:09:10.879 --> 00:09:11.220 Brantley. 213 00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:12.639 You haven't got anything on me. 214 00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:15.159 That's true. I can't pin anything on you just now. 215 00:09:16.019 --> 00:09:17.110 But let me warn you, Mr. 216 00:09:17.139 --> 00:09:17.500 Brantley. 217 00:09:18.299 --> 00:09:22.629 The Shadow intends to prevent anyone from destroying the intercity tunnel. 218 00:09:48.740 --> 00:09:49.179 Who's there? 219 00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:51.220 Oh, it's you, Mr. Cranston. 220 00:09:51.279 --> 00:09:53.139 I couldn't see you in the dark. Yes, Pop Berkey. 221 00:09:53.220 --> 00:09:54.779 Oh, Lamont, thank heaven you've come. 222 00:09:54.850 --> 00:09:57.210 Margo, what are you doing here at the tunnel? 223 00:09:57.289 --> 00:09:58.909 Well, I was waiting for you at your apartment, Lamont, 224 00:09:58.929 --> 00:09:59.850 when Mr. Berkey called. 225 00:09:59.889 --> 00:10:01.970 You asked me to call you if anything suspicious was 226 00:10:02.009 --> 00:10:02.580 going on here. 227 00:10:02.629 --> 00:10:04.379 And something suspicious is going on here. 228 00:10:04.389 --> 00:10:05.860 There's someone down in the tunnel, Mr. 229 00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:06.279 Cranston. 230 00:10:06.440 --> 00:10:09.139 Yes, I know. I expected the killer would make his 231 00:10:09.179 --> 00:10:11.379 move tonight with the tunnel deserted. But what are you 232 00:10:11.419 --> 00:10:12.039 doing here, Margo? 233 00:10:12.299 --> 00:10:13.919 Well, I don't know, but I didn't know how to 234 00:10:13.940 --> 00:10:15.440 get in touch with you, so I thought I'd see 235 00:10:15.460 --> 00:10:16.659 what I could do in your absence. 236 00:10:17.100 --> 00:10:19.360 I left a note for you at your apartment, Lamont. Oh, 237 00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:20.500 am I glad you've come. 238 00:10:21.019 --> 00:10:23.220 The very idea of going down into that empty tunnel 239 00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:24.259 gives me the cold chills. 240 00:10:24.299 --> 00:10:26.830 Now, wait a minute, Margo. What were you expecting to 241 00:10:26.889 --> 00:10:27.710 do down in the tunnel? 242 00:10:27.889 --> 00:10:29.110 What was I expecting to do? 243 00:10:29.570 --> 00:10:29.970 Why, I was. 244 00:10:31.029 --> 00:10:34.090 Well, now that you mention it, what was I expecting 245 00:10:34.129 --> 00:10:34.509 to do? 246 00:10:34.950 --> 00:10:39.039 Margo, we're dealing with a desperate man. Do you realize 247 00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:40.539 what might be waiting for you down there? 248 00:10:40.610 --> 00:10:41.049 Mr. 249 00:10:41.090 --> 00:10:43.470 Cranston is down in the tunnel, all right? The elevator 250 00:10:43.490 --> 00:10:45.110 was at the bottom of the shaft when I came 251 00:10:45.149 --> 00:10:45.690 back from dinner. 252 00:10:45.929 --> 00:10:48.450 Berkey, what can he do to the tunnel? He could 253 00:10:48.470 --> 00:10:50.309 set a time bomb and blow it to pieces. Well, 254 00:10:50.330 --> 00:10:50.690 let's go. 255 00:10:50.750 --> 00:10:51.090 Where? 256 00:10:51.309 --> 00:10:53.330 We're going down into the tunnel, Margot, on a manhunt. 257 00:10:53.789 --> 00:10:54.389 You better wait here. 258 00:10:54.570 --> 00:10:55.149 All alone? 259 00:10:55.250 --> 00:10:55.960 We won't be going long. 260 00:10:55.980 --> 00:10:58.019 Uh-uh, not me. I'd rather go down the tunnel. 261 00:10:58.179 --> 00:11:00.559 All right, then, let's go. Where's the elevator, Berkey? Over 262 00:11:00.620 --> 00:11:02.299 this way. I have some boots for you to wear. 263 00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:06.460 There's a little muddy down below. All right. Here, step in, Margot. 264 00:11:07.539 --> 00:11:09.080 We're going down into a coal mine, isn't it? 265 00:11:11.139 --> 00:11:13.759 Margo, have you ever been down in a coal mine? 266 00:11:14.100 --> 00:11:16.480 No, but this is the way I imagine it would be. 267 00:11:19.340 --> 00:11:20.320 How deep is this? 268 00:11:20.539 --> 00:11:20.779 What? 269 00:11:21.230 --> 00:11:22.399 This elevator shaft. 270 00:11:22.610 --> 00:11:25.230 About a hundred feet or so. It isn't very deep. 271 00:11:25.409 --> 00:11:26.629 It's deep enough for me, thanks. 272 00:11:26.889 --> 00:11:28.370 This will take us down to the tunnel. 273 00:11:30.309 --> 00:11:30.889 What happened? 274 00:11:31.110 --> 00:11:32.129 We've arrived, Margo. 275 00:11:32.250 --> 00:11:32.710 That's all. 276 00:11:32.909 --> 00:11:33.549 That's enough. 277 00:11:34.919 --> 00:11:37.659 All right, step out. Look out for the mud and water. 278 00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:41.559 Better walk on the planks. Wait a minute. Flash your 279 00:11:41.580 --> 00:11:44.879 light around, Berkey. Well, no one here. 280 00:11:45.820 --> 00:11:46.639 All right, lead on, Berkey. 281 00:11:49.470 --> 00:11:53.309 It's a gloomy-looking place, isn't it? Sort of scary, too. 282 00:11:53.690 --> 00:11:58.629 You're just outside the tunnel now. All right, step in, Marlowe. 283 00:11:59.120 --> 00:11:59.809 Is this the tunnel? 284 00:12:00.049 --> 00:12:00.789 Not yet, lady. 285 00:12:01.210 --> 00:12:02.549 This is the decompression chamber. 286 00:12:02.870 --> 00:12:05.350 Oh, yes, the decomp... The what? I'm not going in 287 00:12:05.370 --> 00:12:05.909 that thing. 288 00:12:05.929 --> 00:12:07.850 It's the only way we can get into the tunnel, Margo. 289 00:12:07.870 --> 00:12:10.429 Well, isn't that the place where those men were... Say, 290 00:12:10.470 --> 00:12:11.740 I don't think I'm going to like this. 291 00:12:11.769 --> 00:12:13.539 Come on, Margo. It's too late to back out now. 292 00:12:13.940 --> 00:12:16.539 Well, I'll get in, but it's under protest. 293 00:12:17.059 --> 00:12:17.539 Okay, Berkey. 294 00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:18.620 Shut the door. 295 00:12:23.009 --> 00:12:25.509 That means that air is being pumped into this chamber. 296 00:12:25.950 --> 00:12:26.950 We're going under pressure. 297 00:12:27.009 --> 00:12:27.909 No, I don't like it. 298 00:12:28.309 --> 00:12:31.129 Your ears hurt, huh? It's the pressure. You'll get used 299 00:12:31.149 --> 00:12:31.360 to it. 300 00:12:31.490 --> 00:12:32.830 I don't intend to get used to it. 301 00:12:33.009 --> 00:12:34.309 It's necessary, Margot. 302 00:12:34.970 --> 00:12:36.700 You see, we've got to adjust the pressure in our 303 00:12:36.740 --> 00:12:38.980 bodies to the pressure in the tunnel before we can 304 00:12:39.019 --> 00:12:44.879 enter it. Well, pressure's even now. Ah, this is the tunnel. 305 00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:47.039 The river's right overhead, lady. 306 00:12:47.460 --> 00:12:48.440 Oh, it's so dark. 307 00:12:48.899 --> 00:12:51.029 Can you give us some light, Brookie? I wouldn't want 308 00:12:51.070 --> 00:12:54.350 someone sneaking up behind me in the dark. Yeah, that's better. 309 00:12:55.210 --> 00:12:56.429 Goodness, it's muddy down here. 310 00:12:57.490 --> 00:12:57.970 Now what, Mr. 311 00:12:58.009 --> 00:12:58.269 Berkey? 312 00:12:58.710 --> 00:13:00.190 Now we'll take a look around. 313 00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:04.899 Knowing you, Lamont, certainly gets me into the dauntless places. 314 00:13:04.919 --> 00:13:06.179 You're not sorry, are you? 315 00:13:06.519 --> 00:13:07.779 No, but I do wish that. 316 00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:08.019 Hey, look. 317 00:13:08.899 --> 00:13:11.440 I'm going back to the decompression chamber to see that 318 00:13:11.460 --> 00:13:13.750 whoever it is don't try to slip out while you're 319 00:13:13.769 --> 00:13:15.049 looking toward the center of the tunnel. 320 00:13:15.210 --> 00:13:15.909 That's a good idea. 321 00:13:16.649 --> 00:13:17.289 We'll go on ahead. 322 00:13:18.450 --> 00:13:18.889 Come on, Margot. 323 00:13:21.169 --> 00:13:23.509 Lamont, do you think that was such a good idea? 324 00:13:23.789 --> 00:13:24.000 What? 325 00:13:24.580 --> 00:13:27.440 Sending him back to guard the exit. Suppose whoever it 326 00:13:27.500 --> 00:13:29.720 is down here overpowers him and locks us in. 327 00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:33.480 Don't be silly, Margo. That couldn't happen. Berkey's no. 328 00:13:34.340 --> 00:13:35.360 The lights! They've gone out! 329 00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:35.700 Berkey! 330 00:13:36.360 --> 00:13:36.980 Berkey, what's wrong? 331 00:13:37.980 --> 00:13:39.659 Berkey! Come on, Margo. 332 00:13:40.340 --> 00:13:41.070 We've got to get out of here. 333 00:13:41.299 --> 00:13:43.250 I can't see anything, Lamont. I can't run in the dark. 334 00:13:43.309 --> 00:13:43.970 Over this way, Margo. 335 00:13:44.590 --> 00:13:45.070 Give me a hand. 336 00:13:45.090 --> 00:13:47.370 All right. Here's the door. 337 00:13:48.659 --> 00:13:49.279 Get us out of here! 338 00:13:49.820 --> 00:13:50.419 Sparky! 339 00:13:51.080 --> 00:13:52.000 Sparky! 340 00:13:54.059 --> 00:13:57.240 I don't think he can help us now. Well, what 341 00:13:57.259 --> 00:13:57.820 are we going to do? 342 00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:01.080 I guess we'll have to wait until someone comes and 343 00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:01.620 lets us out. 344 00:14:01.950 --> 00:14:04.929 That's a pleasant thought. Not really spending a night in 345 00:14:04.970 --> 00:14:08.269 this place. What's that? 346 00:14:08.289 --> 00:14:09.230 It sounds like a phone. 347 00:14:09.629 --> 00:14:10.250 Down here? 348 00:14:10.269 --> 00:14:12.830 Yeah, a foreman probably uses it to speak to his 349 00:14:12.850 --> 00:14:13.690 boss above ground. 350 00:14:14.250 --> 00:14:15.009 Well, where is it? 351 00:14:15.509 --> 00:14:18.110 Well, the sound came from... Oh, there it is. 352 00:14:19.960 --> 00:14:20.259 Hello? 353 00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:21.419 Well, Mr. 354 00:14:21.460 --> 00:14:23.809 Cranston, I guess this will teach you not to poke 355 00:14:23.830 --> 00:14:25.590 your nose into something that doesn't concern you. 356 00:14:25.769 --> 00:14:28.950 Who is this? Makes no difference now, Mr. Cranston. You're 357 00:14:28.990 --> 00:14:29.750 gonna die. 358 00:14:29.769 --> 00:14:30.909 You hear me? 359 00:14:31.590 --> 00:14:33.230 Die. Brantley, listen to me. 360 00:14:34.169 --> 00:14:36.519 I don't care about myself. But surely you won't do 361 00:14:36.539 --> 00:14:38.720 this to a woman. Sorry, I can't oblige you, but 362 00:14:38.779 --> 00:14:41.940 she's got to go, too. Now I'm gonna step up 363 00:14:41.980 --> 00:14:44.919 the pressure in the tunnel till your eardrums crack. 364 00:14:46.769 --> 00:14:49.149 It'll go until the whole tunnel will explode just like 365 00:14:49.190 --> 00:14:50.090 a punctured balloon. 366 00:14:50.610 --> 00:14:51.970 The river will rush in and. 367 00:14:51.950 --> 00:14:54.190 You'll be drowned like rats in a trap. 368 00:14:54.889 --> 00:14:56.490 Hello? Hello? 369 00:14:57.610 --> 00:14:58.350 Oh, he's hung up. 370 00:14:58.389 --> 00:15:00.690 What is it, Lamont? Oh, the lights. The lights are 371 00:15:00.750 --> 00:15:01.149 on again. 372 00:15:01.570 --> 00:15:05.009 Margot, I've got something to say to you, and it's 373 00:15:05.029 --> 00:15:05.799 not going to be easy. 374 00:15:06.440 --> 00:15:06.960 Yes, Lamont? 375 00:15:07.659 --> 00:15:10.840 This is the end for us. We're going to die 376 00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:12.460 here in this hole, Margot. 377 00:15:13.500 --> 00:15:15.809 Lamont... I'm not afraid to die. 378 00:15:16.929 --> 00:15:17.289 Margot. 379 00:15:19.669 --> 00:15:22.309 All I can see is I... I know now that I... 380 00:15:22.250 --> 00:15:24.029 I've been right about you. 381 00:15:24.049 --> 00:15:25.070 Thanks, Lamont. 382 00:15:26.769 --> 00:15:27.389 Is it Brandly? 383 00:15:28.230 --> 00:15:30.100 I don't know, Margot. I... I think so. 384 00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:31.940 Lamont, what's that? 385 00:15:32.899 --> 00:15:36.320 I'm afraid he's going to carry out his threat.
